‘A beautiful exploration of father-daughter relationships.’
Vogue
From the bestselling author of Unpolished Gem.
At twenty-something, Alice is eager for the milestones of adulthood: leaving home, choosing a career, finding friendship and love on her own terms. But with each step she takes she feels the sharp tug of invisible threads: the love and worry of her parents, who want more than anything to keep her from harm. Her father fears for her safety to an extraordinary degree – but why?
As she digs further into her father’s story, Alice embarks on a journey of painful discovery: of memories lost and found, of her own fears for the future, of history and how it echoes down the years. Set in Melbourne, China and Cambodia, Her Father’s Daughter captures a father–daughter relationship in a moving and astonishingly powerful way.
"This is poignant, sophisticated prose, some of the finest you’ll read in the genre."
The Age
"Written in lucid and affecting prose, Her Father’s Daughter
is ultimately a filial love song that carries with it the notes of acceptance and understanding."
Australian Book Review
"Pung makes everything she writes about shine."
The Australian
